INTRODUCTION					*Vital.Math-introduction*

*Vital.Math* provides some bitwise operators.
If vim provides builtin functions, uses these directly.

FUNCTIONS					*Vital.Math-functions*

fib({number})				*Vital.Math.fib()*
	{number}th fib, begins with 0, 1.
>
	fib(0) == 0
	fib(1) == 1
	fib(10) == 55
	fib(48) == 512559680
	fib(49) == -811192543
<
	Note that Vim cannot handle big numbers. This is not
	|Vital.Math.fib()|'s issue but Vim's limitation.

modulo({m}, {n})			*Vital.Math.modulo()*
	Return modulo.  This behaves like Scheme's one.
>
	modulo(10, 3) == 1
	modulo(-10, 3) == 2
	modulo(10, -3) == -2
	modulo(-10, -3) == -1
<

lcm({values})				*Vital.Math.lcm()*
	Return least common multiple number of elements in {values}.
	If at least one of {values} is 0, lcm returns 0.
>
	lcm([2, 3]) == 6
	lcm([2, -3]) == 6
	lcm([7, 2, 3, 2]) == 42
	lcm([0]) == 0
	lcm([2, 3, 0]) == 0
<

gcd({values})				*Vital.Math.gcd()*
	Return greatest common divisor of elements in {values}.

	If all elements of {values} are 0, gcd returns 0.
	If at least one of {values} is not 0, gcd returns greatest common
	divisor of non zero elements.
>
	gcd([2, 3]) == 1
	gcd([20, -30]) == 10
	gcd([5, 20, 30]) == 5
	gcd([0]) == 0
	gcd([4, 0, 6]) == 2
	gcd([0, 0, 0]) == 0
<

sum({values})				*Vital.Math.sum()*
	Return all sum of elements in {values}.

	If {values} included not a number elements, throw an exception.
        If {values} is empty list, returns 0.
>
	sum([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]) == 15
	sum([1, 2, 3.2, 4, 5.3]) == 15.5
	sum([1, 2, '3', 4, 5])  " throw exception
        sum([]) == 0
<

round({expr} [, {digits}])		*Vital.Math.round()*
	Round off {expr} to {digits} digits after the decimal point and
	return it as a Float.
	If {digits} is omitted, it defaults to 0.
	If {expr} lies halfway between two values, then use the larger
	one (away from zero).
	{expr} must evaluate to a Float or a Number.
>
	round(2.675) == 3
	round(2.675, 2) == 2.68
	round(-2.675, 2) == -2.68
	round(5.127, -1) == 10.0
	round(5.127, 20) == 5.127
